Date Name Thumbnail Size Description Versions
18:51, 14 September 2008 Halvedstead01.jpg (file) 37 KB Distant view of a HalvedStead: the truss is approximately 31 meters tall. 1
18:52, 14 September 2008 Halvedstead02.jpg (file) 82 KB Top view of HalvedStead, showing the tensegrity structure. 1
11:00, 4 December 2008 Fdseastead-build-step 001.png (file) 452 KB Hard artificial island construction: step 1, laying down the iron rebar, fiberglass or plastic or foam buoyancy, pipes and other infrastructure elements inside the cavity. 1
11:06, 4 December 2008 Fdseastead-build-step 002.png (file) 488 KB Hard artificial island construction: step 2, pouring down the concrete. Because of the crazy amount of concrete needed this process is slow and takes days if not weeks, so the entire thing is already curing from the bottom to the top all along. 1
11:11, 4 December 2008 Fdseastead-build-step 003.png (file) 360 KB Hard artificial island construction: step 3, the entire structure is set (details are not shown here). 1
11:12, 4 December 2008 Fdseastead-build-step 004.png (file) 369 KB Hard artificial island construction: step 4, the cavity is opened and the sea surrounds the structure to lift it up. 1
11:14, 4 December 2008 Fdseastead-build-step 005.png (file) 323 KB Hard artificial island construction: step 5, the structure is floated away. The cavity may be closed and the water pumped out for another construction cycle. 1
09:21, 20 December 2008 Flexibreak 002.png (file) 589 KB Variable-diameter floating breakwater made of vertical tubes for entrained water added mass. 1
09:22, 20 December 2008 Flexibreak 001.png (file) 650 KB Variable-diameter floating breakwater: detail of expansion/contraction of the tubes ring. This also changes the effective width of the breakwater so it can be tuned to a variable range of ocean waves' frequencies. 1
09:24, 20 December 2008 DHTMCsteads.png (file) 590 KB Double-hyperboloid multi-column seasteads. 1
13:21, 7 September 2009 Artififloatisland01.jpg (file) 154 KB Far away view of the artificial floating tropical island. 1
13:22, 7 September 2009 Artififloatisland02.jpg (file) 149 KB View from helipad of artificial floating tropical island. 1
13:23, 7 September 2009 Artififloatisland04.jpg (file) 148 KB Viw from top of observation tower of artifial floating tropical island. 1
13:23, 7 September 2009 Artififloatisland05.jpg (file) 148 KB Sunbathing on the artificial floating tropical island. 1
13:25, 7 September 2009 Artififloatisland03.jpg (file) 143 KB View of the house of artificial floating tropical island. 1
19:30, 9 September 2009 Artififloatisle06.jpg (file) 146 KB Another model of artificial floating island, this time with large aluminium support beams that can accomodate many smaller hanging structures (at the expense of wind drag coefficient for the entire seastead) 1
19:31, 9 September 2009 Artififloatisle07.jpg (file) 148 KB Closer view of second model of artificial floating island. Configuration is very different, for very different uses of the buildable surface and storage room inside the hollowed out base. 1
